GRC created flowgraphs: calling methods created within the top_block from my own imported code

GNU Radio

The subject line describes what I want to do.

I want to be able to call methods created within the GRC-created code
from my own imported functions.

For example, if the GRC created flowgraph created a method called
set_foonly(), I’d like to be able to
call set_foonly() from within my own imported code. But if I try to
pass “self”, GRC complains that it
isn’t defined (which is true–“self” doesn’t exist until runtime).

Any clueage?

what you can do is pass a string representing the name of your variable;
the block wrapper template can expand that to self.set_$(var), but you
will never get grc to reference the methods of blocks and classes at
edit time.

So, I have to define my own GRC block then. Hmmm.
